Oh yeh, I forgot to mention how cool I think this effort is. I may end uptrying this on my SL-6000 in the future, but that is running rc12 of the"native" pdaXrom and needs to remain that way for a while.

And, I see 8.0 spoken about on the web page, but I can only find 7.9 inthe archives, am I missing something?

Again, many thanks for any assistance for the SL-5000,

John

UPDATE - I just noticed the 64MB swap recommendation, will try!

Nope, tried 100MB swap file on CF, still get the same illegal instruction message

this hasn't been tested on a 5x00 yet since I don't have one but I would love to have someone test it and I can try to fix it so it will work if possible. The previous version of the jumbo pack worked on the 5x00 so it should work in theory. 0.8.0 is about to be released. 0.7.9 is still the currently released version.you can see verbose output by launching it from the command line, ie in a terminal type:

awwwhhhhh! now i need to uninstall old files and ruin the perfect setup to try the new version.

maybe not there hasn't been too many changes, just added gftp and java plugin to firefox and cleaned up a few unneeded files and minor fixes to a few scripts...maybe I will wait until it got qt 3.3 working for the next release...

On the other hand, the java plugin for firefox is very eagerly awaited by some of us. . . . (It will make the Zaurus much more useful for me in my work.)

OK, I'll help out some more on testing it for the SL-5500. I remember I tried usingthe -debug (I was looking at the scripts a little) and I saw something abort afterthe 7th attempt, but I can't remember the details. I will try this again shortly.

I also remember seeing something about a reccommendation, but it scrolled by toofast. I'm very concerned about the "illegal instruction" message during the install.

monolingual on? I never heard of it, but I will also check that out...

I created an /etc/X11/monolingual file.I managed to capture the errors from "xlauncher -debug". I have notmanually created any xmodmap files, since I read that an appropriate oneis put down during the install. I don't know if the xmodmap errors below arefatal, or if something else is producing the "illegal instruction" message, andulitmate crash.

Well, since I can't get the pdaXqtrom stuff running on the 5500, I decidedto try the latest xqtjumbo and I got it working for the most part. Pretty cool.I won't cloud this topic with the details. I will look for a suitable placeafter some sleep. John

I really wish I could use pdaxqtrom. I think new version should be made after ironing problems of the previous one. Neither 0.7.8 nor 0.7.9 doesn't work for me. I wrote errors above, some people have the same error from time to time but it works for them after reinstall or xqtcleanup.I would like to enjoy pdaxqtrom but I can't.

Well, I just restored by SL-6000 to the sharp ROM, and am trying pdaXqtrom on it.For the time being, I am launching as root (xlauncher) as I do not wish to setup sudo.

It seems better after a reboot, which makes me ask if there is a simple way tomount all the cramfs images, as currently I am invoking the install script eachtime after a reboot, which is really overkill.

There seems to be an issue on the SL-6000, such that trying to switch to theX11 root window becomes impossible. The X server stays up, and new clientscan be created, but they just cause a white rectangle to be overlayed on the normalQtopia desktop.

I'm seeing another issue where the (regular) terminal program no longer acceptsinput after a resume. You must kill it and start a new one.

Anyway, I would be interested to know if other folks are seeing these issues on the 6000,or if I'm the only one evwn trying this... Thanks, John

I 've installed the current cram version from meanie with java. Everything works fine except for Thunderbird. I started it in the debug mode. After 1 minute i got the line "*** loading the extensions datasource". This line reteirate but nothing happens?
